Three years ago today I became an Aunt to the most amazing little girl on this planet. Dylan Sara, you stole my heart from the moment I knew you were growing in your mommy’s tummy and on your way. I never expected that I’d be giving you a cousin and lifelong best friend in your first year of life, that was just a huge bonus. Your smile, your giggle, your ferocious ability to love everyone around you and your hilarious sense of humor are only some of my favorite things about you. You are one amazing little girl and I am so lucky to call you my niece and to be your Auntie Traci. I love you today, tomorrow and always.......forever and always sweet girl. ❤️ #auntielife #dylansara #dylanturns3 #bestnieceever #october2018 #auntlifeI have watched this video like 25 times in the hour since I took it. I still cannot believe she’s mine. I couldn’t love her more!! Two years old is tough y’all, but moments like these make all the challenging times more than worth it. Also, catching her on video is no easy task, she’s a little camera shy normally. But not tonight! 💛 #sloaneleah #twoyearsold #unicornbaby #whatsloanesays #soproudofthisgirl❤️My little crew! ❤️💙💚 #babyfriends #nannylife #lovethese3I have something that’s been weighing on me that I feel like I need to share. I feel like maybe I’ve been dishonest publicly. Brooklyn and I did not get off to the best start. She’s been with us since April 14th. She’s been a wild, crazy ball of fluff, biting constantly and hard for me to cuddle and love. I suspect we adopted her way too soon after I lost Riley and I wasn’t truly ready to love another dog. But Sloane was constantly asking for Riley and looking for her and it broke my heart more than it was already broken. Enter Brooklyn. I promise you she has been well cared for. Safely kept from the toddlers and babies in her own pack-n-play in our bedroom. And well, she has been driving me BONKERS for the past 4 months. Getting her fixed and having the last of her puppy teeth extracted on Tuesday has changed her into the puppy I needed. My own little cuddle bug who can help me miss Riley just a little less. She loves laying in her bed now. She gives nice little kisses and well, she even doesn’t mind her new couture Sloane and I got her to cover her stitches. (Apparently cones for a 5lb 9oz dog are impractical, go figure!😂) Yesterday and today have been the best days getting to snuggle and get to know my Brookey-Boo. I am sorry it took me this long to let her in, but man I am so glad that she’s here now. I mean look at that face!!!! Prepare for Brooklyn spam now too!! #sorrynotsorry #lovethispuppy #BrooklynMoana #brooklynthemaltese #shewormedherwayintomyheart #7monthsold❤️👑Archives

….and on the 8th night of Hanukkah, we learn something new!
Well, they say “you learn something new every day” and while the older I get the more I find that to be true, I will admit it’s been quite some time since I’ve learned anything about Judaism or a Jewish … Continue reading
